... A specific action plan is set to meet the objective targets. All activities will be through off-trade retailers and targeting consumers in the ABC1 categories predominately in the South East of England. Due to targeting these consumers we aim to create a premium perception of our product to take advantage of slumps in sales of Champagne. We aim to generate a vibe of interest from our campaign, advertising and events in which people want to get more involved with wine and events orientated around it. For instance through our created app GPS will locate local wine events, vineyards and merchants that sell English wine, and customers will be able to use this at will. Currently English wine have 1785 consumer details from details given to them from vineyards. Database software will be purchased so that EWP can collect data from their consumers so that in the future they are able to retain the consumers. The media which will be used has been selected as we feel that this attracts our target consumers and in turn will help meet the objective targets. We will attend events such as Badminton Horse Trials and RHS Spring Gardening Show that will likely to attract a large portion of our target audience to allow them to text the product and to educate them to the week. A period of testing will take place prior to the English wine week in which all media will be...

...1.0 Introduction to Brazil Tourism Industry In Brazil, tourism is a key to the economy development of several regions of the country. This statement was further supported by Slob B. & Wilde J. (2006), in their published journal entitled ‘Tourism and Sustainability in Brazil’, regardless of anywhere in the world, tourism, indeed; is the fastest growing industry and it contributes the world economy with a gross output of over US$7 trillion, employing 11% of globe’s workforce, forming 11.5% of global GDP. While in Brazil, White (2006) found that the industry contributes 3.2% of the total country revenue in year 2005. According to World Tourism Organization (WTO), due to the devaluation of American Dollar against the Brazilian Real has made a favorable trend in International tourist arrival to Brazil to grow dramatically in 2007 and in early 2008. In spite of this, statistic in Table 1 shows that revenue had risen from USD 4.3 billion in 2006 to USD 5.7 billion in 2008.

...1 WHAT IS A FIELD STUDY? The field study is an integral part of the HDSR Program, and is the basis for much of the upper level course work required by our majors. The field study allows students to: • gain experience in integrating the theoretical perspectives learned in the classroom with experiences gained in the field; • achieve insight into the workings of an organization; • become more conscious of the relationship of social roles, institutional dynamics, and larger cultural systems. When students return to campus, Field Study Seminar assists students in analyzing and interpreting their experiences, culminating in a major academic paper. An HDSR field study differs from a conventional internship or practicum in important ways. The main difference lies in the purpose. The primary purpose of a conventional internship or practicum is for the student to perform a job and learn skills that will be useful in a future career. In contrast, the HDSR Field Study is an ethnographic research project. Its main purpose is for the student to hone his or her analytical skills and gain insight into the dynamics of the organization in larger societal context. That is not to say that the job, in and of itself, is not important. HDSR students are expected to work diligently, and make every effort to contribute to the organization in positive ways, along with the added dimension of observing and analyzing the organization. An HDSR field study might be thought of as a conventional internship/practicum...

...The media Anne O’Keeffe Historical overview of media discourse ‘The media’ is a very broad term, encompassing print and broadcast genres, that is anything from newspaper to chat show and, latterly, much more besides, as new media emerge in line with technological leaps. The study of ‘the media’ comes under the remit of media studies from perspectives such as their production and consumption, as well as their aesthetic form. The academic area of media studies cuts across a number of disciplines including communication, sociology, political science, cultural studies, philosophy and rhetoric, to name but a handful. Meanwhile, the object of study, ‘the media’, is an ever-changing and ever-growing entity. The study of ‘the media’ also comes under the radar of applied linguistics because at the core of these media is language, communication and the making of meaning, which is obviously of great interest to linguists. As Fairclough (1995a: 2) points out, the substantively linguistic and discoursal nature of the power of the media is a strong argument for analysing the mass media linguistically. Central to the connection between media studies and studies of the language used in the media (media discourse studies) is the importance placed on ideology. A major force behind the study of ideology in the media is Stuart Hall (see, for example, Hall 1973, 1977, 1980, 1982). Hall (1982), in his influential paper, notes that the study of media (or ‘mass communication’) has had...

...© Andrew Le Sueur 2004, a.lesueur@bham.ac.uk The rise and ruin of unreasonableness? Andrew Le Sueur Barber Professor of Jurisprudence, The University of Birmingham 1. Introduction Lest we forget what was actually said in 1948, Lord Greene stated:[1] It is true to say that, if a decision on a competent matter is so unreasonable that no reasonable authority could ever have come to it, then the courts can interfere. That, I think, is quite right; but to prove a case of that kind would require something overwhelming … It is not what the court considers unreasonable, a different thing altogether. If it is what the court considers unreasonable, the court may very well have different views to that of a local authority on matters of high public policy of this kind. Some courts might think that no children ought to be admitted on Sundays at all, some courts might think the reverse, and all over the country I have no doubt on a thing of that sort honest and sincere people hold different views. The effect of the legislation is not to set up the court as an arbiter of the correctness of one view over another. It is the local authority that are set in that position and, provided they act, as they have acted, within the four corners of their jurisdiction, this court, in my opinion, cannot interfere. Put like this, unreasonableness as a ground of review is a straightforward concept, based on sound constitutional principles and a useful longstop...

Decision analytical modelling can be used as a basis for economic evaluations in these situations. Stavros Petrou professor of health economics 1, Alastair Gray professor of health economics 2 1 Clinical Trials Unit, Warwick Medical School, University of Warwick, Coventry CV4 7AL, UK; 2Health Economics Research Centre, Department of Public Health, University of Oxford, Oxford, UK Economic evaluations are increasingly conducted alongside randomised controlled trials, providing researchers with individual patient data to estimate cost effectiveness.1 However, randomised trials do not always provide a sufficient basis for economic evaluations used to inform regulatory and reimbursement decisions. For example, a single trial might not compare all the available options, provide evidence on all relevant inputs, or be conducted over a long enough time to capture differences in economic outcomes (or even measure those outcomes).2 In addition, reliance on a single trial may mean ignoring evidence from other trials, meta-analyses, and observational studies. Under these circumstances, decision analytical modelling provides an alternative framework for economic evaluation. Decision analytical...

...PREFACE: The field of banking has always been a source of inspiration for me during my entire academic career. To work in a bank, to acquaint with its working mechanism was always a point of interest for me and God gave me a golden opportunity to complete my internship at UBL, one of the leading bank in Pakistan and well known in world due to its appearance in the international markets. I had a general idea about the banking, but once I practically started the internship in banking field I observed much about banking, I realized the importance and significance of commercial banking for the development of economy. To adjust myself in such a large commercial organization was not an easy task, but by the grace of Almighty Allah aid my internship in a befitting manner and I learned a lo about the overall banking arena. This expanded my vision about the banking sector, which in turn enabled me to make an appraisal of the economic situation of our country. This report is a thorough essence of my rigorous studies which I undergone through in a period of two months in a commercial bank. I have exclusively studied and observed the operations/ functioning of the bank and tried my best to abreast myself with all the dimensions of the banks. The purpose of this report is to evaluate the performance of UBL in diversified avenues and give concrete recommendation for further improvement. Although the bank is functioning satisfactory, but the path to ultimate success is still full of threats...

...CHAPTER 1 THE PROBLEM AND ITS BACKGROUND Introduction Pawnshops have been around in one form or another for the past 3,000 years. They offer services similar to those of modern banking institutions including loans, consignments, and storage. A good pawn broker buys items for a reasonable price and sells them at a discount. The pawn industry is about making money, and that means repeat business and reasonable dealings. A good pawnshop will carry a variety of items including jewelry, tools, antiques, furniture, knives, guns, crossbows, camping gear, and everything and anything you could imagine being of value and sellable. Some pawn shops even buy and sell cars, motorcycles, and aircraft. In the Philippines Pawnshop Operation is guided/ covered by Presidential Decree No. 114 Sec. 1-2 as: This decree may be cited as the Pawnshop Regulation Act, which stipulated according to that: “ It is hereby declared the policy of the State to regulate the establishment of pawnshops and to place their operation on a sound and stable basis to derive the optimum advantages from them as an additional source of credit; to prevent and mitigate, as far as practicable, practices prejudicial to public interest; and to lay down the minimum requirements and standards under which they may be established and do business...” The word "pawn" comes from the Latin word "pignus," which means to pledge. When someone has an item of worth on which they would like to receive a monetary loan, they take that...

...2 Negligence: The Basic Principles of Duty of Care The arrangement of this and subsequent chapters Negligence is a large and amorphous subject, and all parts of the law on it are interlocking. It is often difficult to understand one part without having studied the whole, and therefore in arranging the material I have decided to set out the basic principles first, leaving the more sophisticated developments until later. Accordingly the next three chapters on duty, standard of care, causation and remoteness of damage aim to explain the basic negligence action, principally in relation to an action for personal injuries or property damage where the concepts are easiest to understand. More difficult duty problems, such as liability for statements or for pure economic loss, will be dealt with later. Duty is but one element in the tort of negligence, for it must be shown that not only was the defendant under a duty towards the claimant to be careful, but also that he failed to achieve the required standard of care and that that failure caused the damage, and finally that the damage was not too remote a consequence of the act. Duty is about relationships, and it must be shown that the particular defendant stood in the required relationship to the claimant such that he came under an obligation to use care towards him. This relationship is sometimes referred to as ‘proximity’. In cases of personal injury or damage to property the necessary relationship is established if the defendant ought...

Although the mall is situated in an area with quite a number of educational establishments such as LSGH and it gets a lot of visits from students that are in the area it is really still the yuppies that bring in the most business since they are the ones that have the most purchasing power. any revenue produced from the students is usually either on impulse such as an after final exam binge or the fact that it is really just the nearest place to make a purchase so the mall also leverages...
